I wouldn't fret over early week injury reports. It's getting further in the season and we haven't had a bye week yet. I think a lot of the guys will be ready. Check the report on Friday to see who's actually out and questionable. The rest will likely play

“You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”

That was a physical game last week, I would imagine the players are a little bruised up after it. Most should be ready to rock come sunday and then the bye week will do some wonders for that injury report.

I had a feeling the Minn game would leave us with some dinged-up players. If anyone should get the microscope for 'bounty' it should be the Vikings. I can't recall a game with more uncalled, attempted spearing, face masks, etc. Dem dudes is some dirtee mofos. No telling what else they were getting away with. Must be the sort of desperation that sets in when you have a QB like Ponder. :-)

From what I remember, Sherman had a bit of an illness so was held out, Kam has a thigh bruise, not a big deal, Lynch, well his back has given him a Q all year and he's played every game, KJ and Carp both subject to concussion testing rules, Scruggs was held out of practices last week but still played, Red and McDonnald I don't know about though. We'll see what the reports this afternoon say, that'll give us a better idea of what to expect on Sunday.

The injury rpt means nothing. The scratch list does.

Just the fact that neither Carpenter nor Wright have been cleared by Friday is troubling.........that tells me they're out. I think Moffit is fine for Carpenter, that's not a big drop off.........but Morgan for Wright is a HUGE drop off.

I'm thinking the opposite. If there's ONE team with a losing record that is not going to lay down and quit, it's the Jets. They almost beat the Pats and Texans, this is not an easy win for us by any stretch.

The Jets offense is struggling to be consistent, but their defense is every bit as nasty as ours, so don't count on a blowout.

correct me if im wrong but wasn't jason jones brought in largely for collapsing the pocket/pass rush up the middle and not run defense? i thought he rotates out according to whether its a run/pass situation along with bruce?

Absolutely correct Red. That was the big hoggies of our #1 run defense unit that ADP did that to. Really, it makes that run all the more impressive.
